Interface EJBLocalObject

public interface EJBLocalObject

The EJBLocalObject interface must be extended by all enterprise Beans' local interfaces. An enterprise Bean's local interface provides the local client view of an EJB object. An enterprise Bean's local interface defines the business methods callable by local clients.

The enterprise Bean's local interface is defined by the enterprise Bean provider and implemented by the enterprise Bean container.

Method Summary
`EJBLocalHome` | `getEJBLocalHome()` Obtain the enterprise Bean's local home interface.
`Object` | `getPrimaryKey()` Obtain the primary key of the EJB local object.
`boolean` | `isIdentical(EJBLocalObject obj)` Test if a given EJB local object is identical to the invoked EJB local object.
`void` | `remove()` Remove the EJB local object.

Method Detail

### getEJBLocalHome

    public EJBLocalHome getEJBLocalHome()
                                 throws EJBException

  Throws:
    `EJBException` - - Thrown when the method failed due to a system-level failure.

### getPrimaryKey

    public Object getPrimaryKey()
                         throws EJBException

  Obtain the primary key of the EJB local object.

  This method can be called on an entity bean. An attempt to invoke this method on a session Bean will result in an EJBException.

  Returns:

  Throws:
    `EJBException` - - Thrown when the method failed due to a system-level failure.

### remove

    public void remove()
                throws RemoveException,

    `RemoveException` - - The enterprise Bean or the container does not allow destruction of the object.
    `EJBException` - - Thrown when the method failed due to a system-level failure.

### isIdentical

    public boolean isIdentical(EJBLocalObject obj)
                        throws EJBException

  Test if a given EJB local object is identical to the invoked EJB local object.

  Parameters:
    `obj` - - An object to test for identity with the invoked object.
